No Pastries

The 6th November is a day when Swedes commemorate the late King Gustavus II Adolphus. He was killed in action on this day in 1632. The commemoration often consist of eating Gustavus Adolphus pastries. We did not have any of those here at home though. This may be just as well, since the main part of these pastries is a chocolate portrait of the King. Chocolate is said to be poisonous to dogs. In this case, I’d rather have something healthier, like minced meat or sausage. Life is good anyway.
